You will get an email with a link to join the Webinar on Saturday.

The webinar will identify and discuss …

• things proposed by the Governor that match WISDOM’s priorities and need to be supported.
• things that are missing and need to be added by the legislature.
• things that shouldn’t be included and need to be taken out by the legislature.

This webinar is a part of the WISDOM network’s multi-part School of Democracy, to prepare network leaders to work for the inclusion of progressive values in Wisconsin’s 2021-2023 Biennial Budget. (ESTHER is a member of the WISDOM network.)

The sessions are conducted on Zoom. There is no charge, but advance registration is required (find registration links and session archives here).
